Hey Fred where you been? Haven’t seen you at the bend.
The weather has been oh so slow, but it does beat the snow.
There are green shoots peeping through, there in the middle of the snow,
And gosh, the wife did a Robin see, but it was wearing Polar fleece.


Hey Fred, what you know, how were things in Kokomo?
Did you get your tires replaced; did that gal give you a smile?
Did your wife find out about the bowling ball?
And what is with the new car, shucks old Sade was only ten?


Hey Fred what is new, are you wearing new shoes?
Is that a Bear Bryant Pork Pie hat, ah Fred not you too?
And fancy dress shoes, where are your high top ones?
Are you getting fancy on me? Next thing I know you will be drinking tea.


Hey Fred, you old coot, what is with the new haircut?
And oh, my golly gee, you even got a manicure.
Fred, my staid old friend, only one answer for all the change.
You did shed the battleaxe and now have a young princess?
